We are on a massive mission to transform the Bowling Club garden into a beautiful, indigenous green space—a gift to the entire community....

A "living fossil" of the Eastern Cape, the Alexandria Cycad or Dune Cycad (Encephalartos arenarius) is facing a modern threat. This majestic plant, named for its preference for sandy dunes, is critically Endangered. Illegal removal for private collections has halved its wild population in 60 years. Identifying this cycad by its dull green leaves and unique cones is the first step toward understanding and preserving this irreplaceable part of our heritage.

Kenton-on-Sea’s gateway is getting a stunning makeover with rare Alexandria Cycads. A community effort is creating a vibrant garden and a new pathway. We’ve cleared invasives and transplanted these ancient plants, celebrating our town’s beauty. Follow African Legacy's journey on Facebook and Instagram!
